Level The Vibes Riddim was produced in 1987 by George Phang, Harold McLarty, Delon Reid and Paul Elliott for Kemarley, Powerhouse, Luke, Manatee and Stronger, bringing together a broad mix of late-80s and later cuts on the same foundation. Half Pint’s title track, Johnny Osbourne’s Nah Get None A Me and Conroy Smith’s Dance Hall Posse are among the key selections, while the lineup also runs through names like Capleton, Bushman, Cutty Ranks, Luciano and Jah Cure. The riddim is one of those crossover sets that ties vintage roots-era voices to younger dancehall and reggae artists, with the original 1987 recordings sitting alongside later reinterpretations.
